Fri. 12:06 ET- This is Memorial Day weekend, and literature is rich with observations – in novels, poetry, and memoirs.

We’ll have a variety of genres, from the 18th Century to just a few years back. Join us as we cast the musical net and see what we bring in. 05/24/2019
Fri. 8 am ET- Current Top 40 radio is very limited, as was Top 40 1970’s radio. Many songs of that era wereeither branded as a “hit” or “B-side” but often both were strong songs . Strong song material existed inthe 70’s and 80’s era but didn’t get airwave exposure. These fun decades remain unminedwith regard to the breadth and depth of music. Eight Track Mind will share these amazing songs and share them with listeners. 05/24/2019
